Chris Christie friends believe he’s running in 2024

Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is seriously considering running for president in 2024, three people familiar with his thinking tell Axios.

Driving the news: While Christie isn’t saying anything publicly about his thinking — besides telling radio host Hugh Hewitt he’s not ruling it out — people close to him have an early sense of the rationale and outlines of a potential candidacy.

So much wrong with this story. First, Chris Christie doesn’t have any friends, they are just people he knows and hasn’t eaten yet. Secondly, the suspensors haven’t grown into his flesh enough to make him mobile.

Also, there is has to be tons of op research to do on him, they will never find it all.

I mean, the video where he fucks a pie, eats the pie, vomits up the pie, fucks it again, and then lets out a Howard Dean scream as he slowly oozes over that poor screaming child that only cuts off when Christie’s suppurating flesh fills his lungs is enough to kill his primary bid. Imagine Kamala looping the video on prime time, with that fake, braying laugh of hers as the only soundtrack?

And, of course, Tucker Carlson will still endorse him.

Look at them! None of them are even wearing masks! Grandma killers!

 


Who is Derek Chauvin’s beauty queen ex-wife Kellie and where is she now?

Derek Chauvin’s beauty queen ex-wife filed for divorce from the convicted ex-cop days after George Floyd died in his custody.

Kellie May Xiong Chauvin, who was crowned Mrs. Minnesota in 2019, legally separated from Chauvin on May 28, 2020, three days after the fatal arrest, for which Chauvin was found guilty of murder Tuesday, according to the Independent.

On May 30, she filed for divorce in Stillwater, Minnesota, citing “an irretrievable breakdown.” The request was granted on Feb. 2, according to the outlet.

Yeah, where is she? Why isn’t she giving interviews and presenting like a mandrill for protesters? Find her! Storm her suburb castle with torches and pitchforks! Sleeping with a murderer is the same as murdering someone herself!

Stare! Stare into the face of evil if you can! And she’s not even wearing a mask!


First of all, Twitter, it’s clearly a rat, not a mouse. Mice are fucking tiny, you cretinous offal. And secondly, ODing in a subway car is no excuse not to wear a mask. Choke on your vomit safely, dammit.

    Is the Christie’s wife…nice rack.

    • SugarFree

      Probably an intern.

        Mary Pat

        Now there’s a woman that’s gone to bed wearing a snorkel for 20 years.

      • Ownbestenemy

        Dude..just let me enjoy the far away rack photo…I didn’t need that.

      • Stillhunter

        That’s called “good from far, but far from good”

      • Ownbestenemy

        *puts on asshole hat* REALLY? Oh man…that is the greatest thing I have ever heard! I am going to use that now!

      • Stillhunter

        Yeah, a guy I worked for as a whipper snapper was the first I heard it. He was also the only actual misogynist I’ve ever known. Called women cunts in everyday language.

      • Stinky Wizzleteats

        Still not bad for him. Also, they look like siblings.

      • juris imprudent

        Are they from southern New Jersey?

      • Rat on a train

        East Philadelphia?

      • Ownbestenemy

        Born and raised until some kids came by up to no good.

      • zwak

        So, a Piney?

      • TARDis

        Yeah, I don’t go for this. She’s 57 and was never a “beauty”. So what, not everyone can be Christie Brinkley or Elizabeth Hurley.

        Shall we peruse some later photos of Brigitte Bardot?

        Heck, show me some of the young hollywierd hotties without makeup, and they are pretty dang average.

        Embrace your averageness, I say.

        I don’t hate Hillary because she is unattractive on the outside. I hate her because she is truly hideous on the inside.

      • Chafed

        Tardis gets it.

    • rhywun

      It’s possible there was a time her husband wasn’t a fatty.

      • TARDis

        See his wedding photo….

        True statement: They look better than me and my bride on out wedding day. We looked like shite.

      • rhywun

        *googles*

        He looks like an asshole frat-boy. Pass.

    Pass.

    • SDF-7

      Yeah, I don’t think anyone was excited for Christie the last time(s? that’s how much I don’t care about the Fat Bastard) he ran, can’t imagine that’s changed much given how flip-floppy typical Republican he’s been over the years.

      Then again — I wouldn’t have thought anyone would get excited for the Asterisk Administration, so there we are….

      • juris imprudent

        Well, the people excited about the current administration are people that believe politics should rule every single aspect of human life. In short, these people are an evolutionary dead end.

  3. leon

    We want to talk about cultural issues. Lets talk about the culture where it is better to film someone in a shitty state rather than helping them. I’m not saying give the person a bed, but have some humanity and fucking get rid of the rat from their mouth.

    • kinnath

      Helping a incapacitated she-pronoun is a short-cut to a sexual assault charge.

      • Tonio

        How do you know how that person identifies?

      • kinnath

        Uh, bra strap

      • Ownbestenemy

        Like that denotes anything?

      • Chafed

        Bro strap.

      • TARDis

        Pretty tho.

        Seems really loose. Hmm. Yeah, maybe a dude. Poor drug addicted kid.

    • Rat on a train

      It wasn’t me.

      • Aloysious

        *slips into daze, overwhelmed by the surreal*

    • Gadfly

      Lets talk about the culture where it is better to film someone in a shitty state rather than helping them.

      It’s an all too common bad habit, people documenting things rather than getting involved or being decent by not taking vids. On the bright side, though, how would we ever know when people act properly, since it’s not documented?

  4. hayeksplosives

    That clip with the cat is hilarious.

    That woman is going to have the same reaction when the mob lines her up against the wall.

    • TARDis

      ^This and That^

      I had to show the wife that video.

    • Master JaimeRoberto (royal we/us)

      I know which pussy I’d choose.

    • juris imprudent

      That is the greatest cat that ever lived, or ever will.

    • grrizzly

      One of the best cat videos of all times.

    • Gadfly

      That clip with the cat is hilarious.

      Cats are assholes, but sometimes that’s what a situation calls for.

  5. Rebel Scum

    Disloyal bitch was looking for an excuse.

    • leon

      I mean there are good odds he was abusive (he was a cop and all), and so this was a good way to get free.

      • Stinky Wizzleteats

        There’s no telling what was going on there.

      • Rebel Scum

        Yeah, I have no idea.

      • Count Potato

        Chinese spy brainwashed him to cripple the U.S. with riots.

      • SDF-7

        Or — they both knew the crap was going to hit the air impeller and the divorce was a way to sequester their assets. After all, *she* didn’t do anything — not her fault if she got almost everything in the divorce….

      • Hank

        Lots of intriguing possibilities…who knows?

      • Tundra

        I knew a couple who got a strategic divorce for that very reason. I’m not sure he actually left.

    • Master JaimeRoberto (royal we/us)

      I think she’s winking at me.

      • C. Anacreon

        Winking at you? That’s a Frank Zappa lyric:

        Don’t fool yerself girl
        It’s winkin’ at you
        Don’t fool yerself girl
        It’s blinkin’ at you
        That’s why I say
        I’m gonna ram it, ram it, ram it
        Ram it up yer poop chute
        Corn hole
        Ram it, ram it, ram it
        Ram it up yer poop chute
        Fist fuck
        Ram it, ram it, ram it
        Ram it up yer poop chute
        Wristwatch Crisco
        Ram it, ram it, ram it
        Ram it up yer poop chute

  6. leon

    Yeah, where is she? Why isn’t she giving interviews and presenting like a mandrill for protesters? Find her! Storm her suburb castle with torches and pitchforks! Sleeping with a murderer is the same as murdering someone herself!

    I mean we all know that she was the Lady Macbeth to his murderous intent.

    • Ownbestenemy

      She and Marilou Danley (Vegas Oct 1 shooter GF) are spending all of the CIA money they received 😉

      *Wouldn’t be surprised if that is actually a thing on the internet*

    • Drake

      Probably on the jury.

  7. WTF

    Christie is only a Republican by NJ standards, meaning he’s basically a less radical Democrat.

    • Nephilium

      So Trump 2.0?

      • Certified Public Asshat

        Trump is what 240 maybe? You think Christie weighs 480?

      • rhywun

        Trump × 2.0?

      • Rebel Scum

        Romney 2.0

      • juris imprudent

        Half as appealing as Trump, half as principled as Romney?

      • Chafed

        That’s tough but fair.

  8. Stinky Wizzleteats

    The hubris of these people…everybody hates Christie. I bet Jeb the low energy neocon warmonger will throw his hat in the ring too only to be curbstomped by DeSantis.

    • SDF-7

      Please clap.

      • hayeksplosives

        I almost had pity on him when he did that.

    • Urthona

      I mean I hate him slightly less than Kamala. So there’s that.

    • Drake

      Would have made a better AG than Sessions, but didn’t get the job because he threw Kushner’s crooked father in jail.

    • Gadfly

      Yeah, unless something goes wrong or he doesn’t want it, the nom looks like it’ll be DeSantis’s for the taking. A successful governor of a swing state is a strong starting point, plus you have a bit of pugnaciousness, willingness to call out the news and other government entities, and the fact that he’s been one of the best on COVID.

    • Fatty Bolger

      I’m holding out for Jeb! again. That kid’s a winner, I just know it.

        “Chauvin is being closely watched by guards to ensure his safety, not just as a suicide risk, but also from other inmates with violent criminal histories, many of whom resent law enforcement,” the Daily Mail reported. …

        After being found guilty, Chauvin was led away from court in handcuffs. Photos showed he had numbers written on one hand — reportedly the phone number of his lawyer. Chauvin was taken to MCF-Oak Park Heights Prison, where he will be held until sentencing.

    “‘Get the f*** out of New York’: Brooklyn BLM protestors heckle diners at ‘white men-owned’ taqueria following Chauvin verdict

    ‘Get the f*** out of New York,’ the protesters say. ‘We don’t want you here. We don’t want you here.’

    The leader of the protest continues: ‘We don’t want your f***ing money. We don’t want your f***ing taqueria … owned by f***ing white men.'”

    “Jen Psaki says fatal cop shooting of Ma’Khia Bryant, 16, shows police violence ‘disproportionately impacts black and Latino people’ after bodycam video showed her lunging with a knife

    Earlier Wednesday, the Columbus police department released bodycam footage showing an officer shooting Bryant.

    The footage appears to show the 16-year-old holding a knife.

    Bryant is shown running out of her home toward another woman.

    The woman flies backward – and then runs off as the officer shoots Bryant.

    The officer has not been publicly identified.

    Bryant was living in a foster home away from her mother, Paula, who said, ‘This never should have happened. She’s a loving girl.’

    ‘She promoted peace,’ Paula Bryant said. ”

    https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9496641/Psaki-responds-fatal-cop-shooting-16-year-old-MaKhia-Bryant.html

    Police violence disproportionately impacts mostly peaceful knife attacks.

      Interesting considering the girl was about to impact another girl with a knife.

      Related.

      @ValerieJarrett

      A Black teenage girl named Ma’Khia Bryant was killed because a police officer immediately decided to shoot her multiple times in order to break up a knife fight. Demand accountability. Fight for justice. #BlackLivesMatter.

      Police officer’s split-second decision-making & impecable aim, saves African-American woman from violent knife attack. There. Fixed.

      • Ownbestenemy

        We like to point out the reason, the facts, the snark in it all..but we are just a small island. There are groups that want to keep the tensions just at the right level without allowing it to completely get out of hand and they have done so successfully for over a year.

      • OBJ FRANKELSON

        That is assigning too much forethought to most of these actors. I see a bunch of cynical, short-sighted opportunist, gloming onto whatever will get them more power, damn the consequences.

      • Hank

        Meanwhile, in an alternate universe where the police behave like the protesters want:

        “Racist cop stands by and does nothing as s black girl is stabbed to death.”

    • Semi-Spartan Dad

      Bryant is shown running out of her home toward another woman.

      The woman flies backward – and then runs off as the officer shoots Bryant

      .

      Well, that’s one way to phrase it. Another would be that Byrant is shown pinning a girl down against a car while the knife is raised up and poised to plunge into the pinned girl’s throat. The officer has a split second to act and shoots Bryant to save the pinned girl’s life.

      I’m generally very critical of officer shoots, but it doesn’t get much cleaner than this.

  14. Rebel Scum

    They see me trollin’…

    OP Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) announced on Sunday that she plans to introduce a resolution to expel Democratic Rep. Maxine Waters (Calif.) from Congress.

    Greene in a statement on Sunday said that she will “be introducing a resolution to expel Rep. Maxine Waters from Congress for her continual incitement of violence.”

    The Republican lawmaker specifically targeted Waters for speaking to protesters at a demonstration in Brooklyn Center, Minn., on Saturday. Protests broke out in the city last week after police fatally shot 20-year-old Daunte Wright during a traffic stop on April 11.

    • SDF-7

      Considering they already had a vote on censure that went nowhere (party line voting, what a shock), I suspect Sunday is a bit stale on the news front….

    • Ownbestenemy

      Discussed the the AM. Pretty sure it boils down to using department email.

    • Tonio

      Covered here before. Bad form to have used his work email for anything related to this, which was the pretext they used to fire him.

      • Hank

        Indeed, and if they have a politically-neutral policy of firing people who misuse work email they should be in the clear.

        Yet the city manager defended the firing by mentioning the cop’s “egregious comments,” which would suggest to me that he might have gotten away with using work email for something less “egregious,” like agreeing with the city manager. But I could always be wrong.

      • juris imprudent

        They would’ve fired him if he was doxxed via his private e-mail (if he was identifiable via it). Don’t kid yourselves.

      • Ownbestenemy

        That would be a different conversation then now wouldn’t it?

    On Wednesday, in the wake of Tuesday’s verdict in the trial of Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin in the death of George Floyd, U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland announced he was targeting the Minneapolis police force with an investigation. …

    Garland began with a mention of George Floyd’s family, saying, ‘Although the state’s prosecution was successful, I know that nothing can fill the void that the loved ones of George Floyd have felt since his death. My heart goes out to them and to all those who have experienced similar loss. I know such wounds have deep roots and that too many communities have experienced those wounds firsthand.”

    He then announced an investigation, saying, “Yesterday’s verdict in the state criminal trial does not address potentially systemic policing issues in Minneapolis.” He said the investigation would be “staffed by experienced attorneys and other personnel from the Justice Department’s Civil Right Division and the U.S. Attorney’s office for the District of Minnesota.”

    Garland spoke of those with “behavioral health disabilities” being targeted by police, stating, “The investigation will also assess whether the MPD engages in discriminatory conduct and whether its treatment of those with behavioral health disabilities is unlawful.”

    If I was a cop in any major city I’d probably be quitting pretty soon.

    SpaceX gets contract to develop crewed lunar lander, ie underwriting Musk’s costs for his Mars colony lander.

    Democrat congresscritter unhappy:

    One member of Congress, though, was critical of NASA’s decision. “I am disappointed that the acting NASA leadership decided to make such a consequential award prior to the arrival of a new permanent NASA administrator and deputy administrator,” said Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-Texas), chair of the House Science Committee.

    • SDF-7

      Mentioned the other day here — and I don’t remember if I read it here or elsewhere, but the long and the short of it is due to NASA budgeting, they had to ask the contractors to be able to get to a mission validation checkpoint on only $2B or so (iirc) and SpaceX was the only one that turned in a plan that could do it. Possibly because Starship is already under development… so it may actually be Musk’s Mars dream underwriting NASA’s Artemis dreams.. 😉

      • Fatty Bolger

        This is correct. It was going to be multiple awards, but they didn’t even have the money to fully fund one.

    • Ownbestenemy

      So either A: they wanted the contract to go to some word-salad group that can claim “firsts” or B: This isn’t how you perpetuate the grift.

      I am going with both.

      Oh Garland – lets not forget that nearly the whole country was aghast at what they saw and the lines were drawn only when people thought the proper response was burn the place down.

    “Demonstrating adroitly that nobody is safe from our current bout of gladiatorial Calvinball, the American Humanist Association has decided to retroactively cancel Richard Dawkins on the grounds that he is insufficiently devoted to transgenderism’s creed.

    Dawkins’s crime was to have suggested on Twitter that transgender people are not, in a scientific sense, members of the sex with which they identify. “In 2015,” Dawkins wrote recently, “Rachel Dolezal, a white chapter president of NAACP, was vilified for identifying as Black. Some men choose to identify as women, and some women choose to identify as men. You will be vilified if you deny that they literally are what they identify as.” In response, the AHA said that Dawkins was “making statements that use the guise of scientific discourse to demean marginalised groups, an approach antithetical to humanist values,” and took away an award that it had given Dawkins in 1996, thereby confirming his initial hypothesis.

    Further justifying its decision, the AHA said that it was “aware that cis-white heteronormative patriarchal institutions, power structures, and social attitudes harm Indigenous, Black, Brown, LGBTQ+, disabled individuals, women and other communities — especially those at the intersections of marginalised identities.” Is there any institution left in America that doesn’t talk like this at the drop of a hat? Richard Dawkins, a renowned evolutionary biologist, says that men aren’t actually women, and immediately we hear incantations. It’s liturgical in nature and in habit: Our father, who could absolutely be our mother . . .”

    • Rat on a train

      Just wait until one murders another then wait for the murder go to the police station and admit guilt. Not only would it reduce the risk of police shootings, it would allow a large reduction in the size of the police force.

    • Stinky Wizzleteats

      If they were both getting stabby I’d have some sympathy but that cop stopped what may have been a murder. I won’t say he should get a medal but he definitely shouldn’t get in trouble.

    • Drake

      So just them stab each other?

      I’m kind of surprised the white cop didn’t do exactly that. In a sane world he’d be getting congratulations for his quick marksmanship that saved a life.

        He’d get strung up for that too no doubt.

      Then I read the first comment:

      “ Also democrats are generally closer to empirical reality on issues than Republicans, meaning that supporting republican causes will generally involve intentionally being incorrect”

      Someone suffers from a slight case of confirmation bias and a bad case of straw man disease.

      • kbolino

        Their measures of “empirical reality” are based upon the cultural output of the very same institutions they already control. It’s a circular argument. The New York Times tells me I’m right, and I know The New York Times is right because I agree with it.

        I also grow a bit tired of the epistemology motte-and-bailey. “We’re empiricists!” they shout, after (barely and temporarily) retreating from “lived experiences” and “what every Black/trans/etc. person in America knows” and “institutional whiteness” and so on.

      • Scruffy Nerfherder

        To be honest, it is difficult to keep up with the constantly evolving and multiplying modes of self-justification that they employ.

        I quoted the Chief Justice of the Wisconsin SC yesterday from his dissent concerning a failure to take a case in election fraud. The response I got was a rambling and spittle flecked torrent of “Red Hats lie about everything, their love for the Constitution, democracy, etc…”

        You can’t effectively respond to it because the dismissal is built into the sentiment. I disagree, therefore I lie, therefore I am wrong.

      • kbolino

        I don’t know if I qualify as a “Red Hat” (unless it’s this kind, and even then there are other distros out there) but I’ll happily disclaim that I have no love of democracy and diminishing love of the Constitution.

        Both have their values but anything can become pathological. Democracy is good for toppling dictators and replacing sclerotic regimes thought its track record at both is spotty; ole’ Lysander Spooner had the Constitution pretty much pegged 150 years ago.

        The sudden uptake of jingoism by (at least a subset of) the left has been a thing to behold. To then turn around and accuse others of being fake about it is quite laughable.

      • Scruffy Nerfherder

        I considered writing a short essay on the evils of democracy, but realized it would be a waste of time. It’s a totem to them, nothing more, nothing less.

        And forget about the Constitution, that only means that they want it to mean at any given moment.

      • blackjack

        Yeah, I’d vote against that.

    • westernsloper

      Aaah man, I am winding down but want to read that. booked marked. I am not sure he sets into the fact that conservatives are fascist sheep also and while this is not a new revelation to me, it has really been punctuated over the last year.

    • kbolino

      It definitely explains part of The Cathedral’s success. I think it could do with more examining of how these institutions came to be in the first place, and why they hold the cultural power that they have. Business and government are at the tail end of the influence cycle; but how did the academy and the press end up at the head end?

      • Scruffy Nerfherder

        I note that while the academy always leaned liberal, when the Feds provided them with a massive market distortion in the form of guaranteed loans, it went to total shit.

        Education was no longer about providing worth, it was about providing a mechanism to hoover up those dollars.

      • juris imprudent

        The academy feeds livestock (or, human capital) into both business and government. No civilized person would forego being informed of the days events – thus the media. And a true believer is willing to make sacrifices to change the world.

      • kbolino

        Sure, and probably we can say that the pre-Enlightenment institutions are so far dead and gone in our cultural space as to be unworthy of digging up for forensic analysis. But the Enlightenment happened a good while ago; sometime between the removal of the Church and tradition as the supreme authority and the installation of Harvard and the NYT in their stead, something else existed besides and the result we have today was not yet guaranteed.

      • Scruffy Nerfherder

        IMO Rousseau was the beginning of the end.

      • kbolino

        Well, I think that gives me a place to start reading to find an answer to my question. Thanks.

      • Scruffy Nerfherder

        I recommend Explaining Postmodernism by Stephen Hicks. He does a good job of bringing to light all the lesser known postulations by the philosophers of the late Enlightenment and how they led to the postmodernists of the 20th century (while also serving as the basis for the entirety of the Marxist and neo-Hegelian movements).

    God called them there, they said. So the pair, referring to themselves as “the Royal Couple,” posted an online invitation to “our dream home and estate” — a 16,313-square-foot home with nine bedrooms, 15 bathrooms, a bowling alley, a theater and an 800-square-foot bar.
